[Superseded]This Standard sets out the method for determining uniaxial compressive strength, the stress-strain characteristics, Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio of a rock sample in compression in the form of specimens of regular geometry of strength less than 50 MPa. The test is intended for strength classification and characterization of intact rock.
